While we are drying out already across central Oklahoma, it's a completely different story across southeastern parts of our state.

Flooding is still a major issue around Lake Texoma. All the rain from the past few weeks and months have gone down the Red River and ended up in the lake.

The flooding has done a lot of damage around the lake. Here are just a few of the photos of areas that are damaged.

This is or was the approach to the Highway 78 bridge going from Yuba, Oklahoma to Bonham, Texas. On Sunday, one lane of the road started to collapse and then on Monday the other side gave way to the water as well. Photo from Dan Pennington with the group Save Lake Texoma.

This photo by Chris Martin of Lake Texoma Memories, a large part of Harbor Road at Grandpappy Point has collapsed. According to Chris, the only way to get to the marina is by boat now that this road is impassable.

Some homes took the brunt of the storm the past few days as well. This photo is from Robyn King of Save Lake Texoma in the Soldier/ Caney Creek area. You can see the big waves crashing into this home that is already flooded. Strong south winds over the last few days and forecast for the next few days will continue to cause damage in this area.

You can actually see the wave through this house. Another photo by Robyn Martin of Save Lake Texoma in the Soldier/ Caney Creek area.

While the lake has crested there are still many areas to watch for possible issues. On Sunday, the North Cumberland levee breached causing the flooding you see at the top of this page.

Some drier days are in the forecast this week, which will hopefully bring some relief to this area.
